We present results from a search for pulsars in globular clusters, including the discovery of a new millisecond pulsar in the stellar cluster GLIMPSE-C01. We searched for low frequency radio sources within 97 globular clusters using images…

Using 16 years of data collected by Fermi Large Area Telescope and 1523 days of survey data from High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Observatory, we discovered the long-sought second GeV-TeV connection towards the globular cluster (GC) UKS…

We have obtained HST/STIS far- and near-UV photometry of globular clusters in four fields in the gE galaxy M87. To a limit of m(FUV) = 25 we detect a total of 66 globular clusters (GCs) in common with the deep HST optical-band study of…

M87 is a nearby radio galaxy and because of its misaligned jet, it is possible to correlate detailed spatially-resolved emission regions in the radio, optical to X-ray waveband with unresolved but contemporaneous flux measurements in the…
